[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 56813, member: 705"]Hey Dollarcrazy Yep...alot of people are glad that there was a CC mint for a while...it gives another mint mark for them to collect. What I was thinking when I saw the Comstock name....I was trying to think of a variety with that name...you see...I don't think of the "Comstock load" when thinking of coins...I don't want someone to think that the coin is rarer or more valuble just because it came from the Comstock load...millions of coins came from CC and I'm sure all of the coins were made with Comstock silver...but that doesn't make them rarer. Now I'm not downplaying this guy's buy but just because a coin has a "name" such as Comstock or even a collector's name such as Bass or Eliasburg doesn't make the coin rarer...its still just a coin with a name on the holder---now I'm not a dealer, but if I was, and was selling a coin with the name Bass on the holder, I think I would sell the coin just as if it didn't have the name on there...it might make a "new" collector think its rare and buy something that in the long run is just a name. As for the one you and your wife have... I think the one you have is better....1921 dated coins are common and not rare even in the high grades....I get them for around $10-12 each most of the time to give away on B-Days..... Speedy[/QUOTE]
